now using 153.0.1 from old 140.13.0 but i do not see a home page icon so i can go back to the home page after visiting a web site such as facebook, etc. in settings i have Firefox set as default, but still do not see the little house icon for going to home page. How do I get the home page icon to appear somewhere with 153.0.1

This is probably more a suggestion than a question.

In the "Home" section of the settings under "Firefox Home Content" there are two different settings for creating shortcuts for pages you visit - one under the choice of "Shortcuts" (on/off) and then just below that there is another choice for "Recent Activity" (on/off) with a sub-menu (on/off) choice for "Visited Pages".

I realize these are two different things (logo thumbnail for the first/webpage images for the second). But I find it not only redundant, but since I don't want to clutter my home page with recent visits, and I only chose the first shortcut setting, every time I visit a site, that is now added to the icons that I HAVE chosen. And worse, when I delete one, a new one pops up in its place, sometimes four or five or more times, whether I "Dismiss" or "Delete from history".

It seems to me that there should be a choice for "Sites visited" in the Shortcuts choice or not include that at all.

The only way to s top it is to fill up the rows. I'm getting there but until I do, I keep fighting with these new shortcuts popping up on their own.

In the previous version of the Firefox opening screen, I had a Google search bar. Below this would be the most popular sites I had visited in a three line grid.

Since the update, the Firefox logo and a huge amount of white space now occupies nearly half the screen before we even get get to the Google search bar. The three line grid of most recent sites has been pushed to the bottom third of the screen and the third line of the grid I actually have to scroll down to see.

I have no bookmarks on my firefox home page; CCleaner removed them. I have since stopped using CCleaner, but I'm trying to restore the home page bookmarks. I see the "+" sign, and when I click it, a box form opens. I enter the site name and URL, and click submit, but nothing is created. I have rebooted and tried many times, but the add button does not do anything. I only want 5 or 6 links, but I can't even place one.

My home page with all my favorite shortcut icons is gone after doing a Firefox update/download. Instead there are shortcuts like wikipedia and others I never use. Facebook and my bank shortcuts and others are missing. How do I get them back?

20/09/2026 CROSSWORD SPOILERS

The crossword on the home page today has a clue has a very misleading answer. It gives the clue "a quartet, but doubled", which should be Octet, however it uses the very outdated and (personally believed to be) inappropriate answer as it would make sense that quarTET would then imply ocTET. A more apt clue should have been, "Triad, but for eight". Very aware this is a personal gripe rather than an actual issue, but is there a process where the crosswords are checked or are they pulled from a 3rd party site?
